I did not go to the Parade, but I could hear the music from our home. I have seen the photos on the local newspaper, the floats were great.

Maybe it is not celebrated in your country because of religion, it is more a catholic celebration.

@LowRiderX it is funny because everyone can wear costumes and some people wear it in the street all day.

We have very few festivals or parades here. But we have just had a multicultural festival in my city. I hadn't thought of this before, but maybe this annual event coincides with carnivals in other countries.

Nice pictures and looks like many enjoyed Carnival! Locally we got Fat Tuesday's celebration too, but we call it malasada day for Damien High School has their traditional malasada selling day and it raises a bit of money for the school!

It's the 10th annual malasada sale.
